Explore The Depths: North Dakota's Deepest Natural Lake Unveiled
Did you know North Dakota has a natural lake so deep you could almost fit a hockey rink in it vertically? I had no idea, to be honest.
Most of North Dakota’s natural bodies of water are shallow prairie lakes.
Of course, there are exceptions. Devils Lake in Ramsey County for example is a pretty deep lake. Especially during these high water times. The deepest spot on that lake is nearly 60 feet deep according to Wikipedia. I know I’ve seen some 50-plus foot readings before on East Devils Lake while fishing and hunting.
Even deeper than Devils Lake is Stump Lake in nearby Nelson County. I’ve seen 70 feet plus water on my depth finder before while fishing on this salty lake. Officially Stump Lake is 73 feet according to Wikipedia.
How about deep man-made lakes or reservoirs?
If we’re talking water created by man, Lake Sakakawea gets down there. According to T & H Sakakawea maxes out at 180 feet deep Lake Oahe is crazy deep as well as it has depths of over 200 feet, although most of those spots are in South Dakota. Again, those are reservoirs.
I was more curious about the deepest NATURAL lake in North Dakota.
I have an answer for you. According to an article in the Jamestown Sun, the deepest natural lake in North Dakota is none other than Lake George located southeast of Tappen, North Dakota.

How deep is Lake George? Try 150 feet deep.
This is crazy deep for a prairie pothole lake, where most of them max out at around 20 feet deep. Lake George is known as “Salt Lake” by locals. The lake has very high concentrations of sodium and sulfate, which makes it unique.
One farmer friend of mine told me a story that somebody released a shark in the lake a long time ago and it survived. You know local legends. If it were true, what was the shark eating? Supposedly the lake is too salty for any freshwater fish to survive.
The lake does offer some recreation opportunities. It has a state park on the west side of the lake and a National Wildlife Refuge on the east side of the lake. Supposedly some people even swim in the lake.
Worth a look next time you’re in the Dawson, Streeter, and Tappen areas.

Wintering Well Series Back For Another Season At McKenzie Co. Heritage Park & North Dakota Oil Museum
For those who are looking for community interaction, interested in learning an old-fashioned skill, or just simply looking for a way to offset those winter blues, join McKenzie County Heritage Park & North Dakota Oil Museum, 904 2nd Ave. SW, Watford City, for another season of Wintering Well: Slow Down & Savor. Classes begin Jan. 2, 2026, and will continue the first Friday of each month through the winter, 5-7 p.m. CT..
The holiday season is a time where many remember and honor past traditions, though it can also be a time where the usual business of life gets ramped up. In this modern word, we are heavily inundated with outside pressures that tell us to “keep busy and work harder”. Technology can be a constant pull, drawing us away from quiet connection.
But, for many of the people who settled and lived in this region before us, life, the holidays and winter in general carried a different feeling altogether. The winter season was often a time that was looked forward to and folks seemed more willing to go along with nature rather than struggling against it. Winter is a time of rest and renewal. A time for life to slow, and strength and energy to be gathered for spring, summer and fall. With the cold winter outside their doors, people were content to sit by the fire, catch up with friends and family, and engage in pastimes that were both fun and functional.
These Hygge style Wintering Well evenings offer an opportunity to slow down and savor this time of year. Bring a crocheting, knitting or embroidery project or start a new one. Even if you have no experience with these skills, bring a crochet hook and some yarn and other participants can help you get started. In addition to learning new skills and practicing existing ones, there is good conversation to share, new relationships to foster and snacks will be served.
These classes are intended for adults, but tweens who want to learn are welcome to come along with their parents. There is no charge to join, but donations are always welcome.
Take a step back from technology and busy schedules to reconnect with the old-fashioned life at these cozy, creative sessions, and Winter Well this season.
For more information, visit McKenzie County Heritage Park & North Dakota Oil Museum’s Facebook page or call them at 701-842-6434.
